geoleksyon integrates the database technology in eleksyon with geographic information system or GIS technology. With geoleksyon, all inputted data on the eleksyon database can be geograhically referenced on digital maps. geoleksyon is a powerful tool that allows candidates, campain managers and political officers to visualize the breadth and depth of its support base. At the same time, it provides an authoritative instrument for planning detailed campaign activites and projects.
geoleksyon also includes digital maps for the specific electoral contest area (city, municipality, province, congressional district, barangay). The digital maps contain the following -
- Geographic features of streets, bridges and water bodies with topology and their corresponding unique labels
- Center line features of streets and water bodies with corresponding unique labels.
- Indicative political boundaries with demographic data and topology.
geoleksyon is a full-featured GIS application that is easy to install and use. The three main features of geoleksyon are Political Geo-plotting, Electorate Mapping and Organization Mapping.
Under Political Geo-Plotting, you can perform tasks that are essential in projecting your mapped information as follows -
- Precinct Plotting. Define your precinct boundaries using the voters' list by precincts, or any existing precinct description or manual maps as reference. You can also visually monitor the number of registerd voters covered by a precinct, and thereby verify the validity of the voters' list.
- Geo-tagging. Represent each registered voter as a single point in the map, and attach all available information about that voter. This enables you not only to determine the distribution and concentration of voters throughout the area covered but their individual profiles as well.
- Propaganda Plotting. Track your posters, billboards, streamers or any propaganda paraphernalia already in place or distributed and indicate areas where additional propaganda materials are needed. Also display the actual images of the propaganda materials, complete with description such as size and type.
With Electorate Mapping, you can create layers of unlimited variety of digital maps - such as demography, election returns, election turnout or evey survey results - and display other information such as projects, events, activities, and issues. This will help you decide what specific interventions are necessary to achieve certain targets in identified areas. Specific features of Electorate Mapping include -
- Projects Mapping. Map your encoded projects from eleksyon, and represent each by a single point with a unique symbol that contains all the relevant information concerning that project.
- Events Mapping. Map your encoded events from eleksyon either as points or lines. This allows the candidate to maximize public exposure when attending social events - such as parades or religious processions - by knowing in advance the characteristics of the routes and the voters' profile in those areas.
- Activities Mapping. Map your encoded activities from eleksyon either as points or lines. This is useful in scheduling and organizing political sorties, routing walkthroughs or motorcades, and other similar activities.
- Issues Mapping. Map your encoded issues from eleksyon either as single points or polygons representing the affected area.
- Voter Preference Mapping. Map your encoded candidate/s preferences of voters and degree of support (hard-pro, soft-pro, undecided, hard-anti, and soft-anti).
- Voter Search. Search for registered voters with specific criteria such as surname, age, birth date and more. This also facilitates locating the exact polling place for each voter.
Under Organization Mapping, you will be able to map out the distribution of your human resources across the campaign area. Its specific features include -
- Political Organization Mapping. Map the geographic assignments of each of your campaign staff (political officers, poll watchers, volunteers and all other staff) and their respective relationships to voters.
- Support Organization / Group Mapping. Map the area of influence of each allied organization or group, be it political, civic, or religious, which may include the geo-tagging of their member voters.
